As indicated In these columns before
the session of the general assembly X
of L., Mr.. Powderly maintains his hold
upon the confidence and support OF the
organization. The conservative party
OF the order follow his lead and all at
tempts to weaken his influence or over
rule his policy, are one after another de.
feated. The trouble in the executive
board has grown solely out Of the at
tempt of the extremists TO carry The
order into radical measures for the re-
dress OF grievance instead OF waiting for
the educational work of the order to
bring.in these changes naturally. The
general assembly just closed, nOtwith-
standing the stormy nature OF the ses-
siOns at times and the persistent efforts
to secure a vote adverse to the general
masterwOrkmen. was quite conserva-
tive in its action. Mr.. Powderly WAS
sustained by an overwhelming vote in
every test case, and the policy which
repudiates all sympathy with the an
archlsts and resort to strikes and boy
colts in order TO redress grievances, was
formally sustained by the delegates.
This action OF the assembly leaves Mr..
POwderly fully in the ascendent. weak

the anarchist from the councils OF the
